I strongly urge you to abandon this scheme. The second part is the accountability proposal. Let me note there are policies in this proposal we are pleased to see. That is how states set longterm goals. In a number of ways the bad habits for making decisions that must be left to states. This is troubling given the laws specific prohibitions. Years, states grappled with a rigid accountability system. The every Student Succeeds act turns the page on that bill and restores these decisions back to state and local leaders. I urge you to adopt a proposal that follows the law. Were raising his concerns because it is important for the law as written by congress to be faithfully executed.

They want to slash the solar energy incentives, the conservation programs, aid to mass transit, aid to elderly americans to help pay their fuel bills. They want to eliminate the 55 mile speed limit. And while they are at it, the republicans would like to gut the clean air act. They never liked it to begin with. Thats one part of their program; the other part is worse. To replace what we have built, this is what they propose to destroy the windfall profits tax and to unleash the Oil Companies and let them solve the Energy Problem for us. Thats it. That is it.
